I recently celebrated my first year in the business! One of the first things I did after we closed on the wash was increase prices to what I thought the market would bear. This was over the 4th of July weekend in 2021 and I was declaring independence from low prices, haha! I figured that if I...

Funny thing, as soon as I placed the order for the new door from IDX, the AC8001 started working great. It's been working great for 9 months, and I'm hoping it continues until I get the IDX dealio...

I went with 2 bays of NAYAX VPOS Touch as a test last year. They're ok, but I'm not converting all my bays over (currently the other 4 are WashGear). I've had to swap a couple bad units, but NAYAX was pretty good about sending me replacements under warranty. I ended up buying a couple extra...

I run Nayax in 2 of my bays with TM-5CU timers.

I saw the "New Door" in Vegas, loved it, and placed an order. Unfortunately, I'm yet to receive/install it. What's the nightmare, and is he on this forum?

Sorry, but I have no experience with Dixmor timers. I am very happy with my Timemaster units. When they fail, I send them to Colorado to be repaired and it's normally about $100 to repair. Not bad, as new ones are about $350 if I recall correctly.

Mine are paired with TM-5CU timers and do count up. There's a configuration file that tells the unit what to charge, in my case it's $3 to start and $1/minute.

I'm averaging about 12cpd. Good days are 25-30. Bad days are 2-3. Best day ever was after a freak weather "mud rain" day, 135 or so for the next couple days. Downside is that I had to reset the machine about 10 times in 2 days. Some drivers just can't follow simple instructions.

I'm very happy with my Nayax units. I put them in 2 bays to test and will probably switch over the other 4 this year. Nothing wrong with the Washgear that's there now, but I like the ability to pay with just about anything that Nayax offers.

My insurance guy found MOE to be the best price. Mutual of Enumclaw.

Thanks so much for sharing! I may have to be doing this to my wash and it's great to know about this product and your method of doing the demo and install.

Wow, that looks great! Could you describe the work? Was it an overpour of the existing system? Or was the old stuff ripped out? How long did it take? Was it a DIY project? Thanks for putting Crete-Heat on my radar!

I was very happy with tokensdirect.com

Yes, and I'm happy to do it. I still only average about 100 tokens per vault with about 800 quarters. Factoring in the shrinkage due to token losses, I'm happy with the whole deal and I know my regulars like it.

Stoked to hear about a "new door" product from IDX. Hopefully they will be in Vegas so I can learn more. I like the idea of 7k way more than 20k, LOL.
